Chudoba
Language: Moravian (Moravština)
Ach, co je to za slavine, co tak pěkně, pěkně spiva? Ach, to je můj najmilejší, ze mne se vysmiva. Ty se ze mne něvysmivej, z chudobnej siroty, choť ja němam žadnych peněz, ani žadne šaty. Jenom ten vínek zeleny, kery mam na hlavě, a ten jeden šuraneček, kery mam na sobě.

Das Seidenband
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Moravian (Moravština)
Available translation(s): FRE
Ach, was ist das für ein Vöglein, singt so lieblich? Ach, das ist mein Allerliebster, aber er verhöhnt mich. Liebster, sollst mich nicht verlachen, daß ich so ärmlich bin, Daß ich keine Taler habe, und auch keine Kleider. Nur das grüne Kränzlein, das ich trag auf meinem Kopfe, Und das einz'ge Röcklein, das ich trag an meinem Leibe.
